UPC8215TU-E2-A

Product Overview

UPC8215TU-E2-A is a NEC/CEL RF MMIC amplifier from CEL / Renesas. In an RF design it is normally used as a RF/IF gain block or CATV/receiver gain stage, so the useful sourcing checks are not only the ordering code but also the operating band, gain behavior, output level, package footprint and bias conditions.

For this model, the key application data to verify are: uPC RF amplifier families cover VHF/UHF through microwave IF bands; exact bandwidth depends on base number; gain, noise figure, output power and IP3 per uPC/CEL datasheet; and low-voltage RF MMIC bias. Because RF amplifier parts are layout- and matching-sensitive, UPC8215TU-E2-A should be treated as an exact-BOM item unless the replacement has been validated with the same matching network, thermal design and control conditions.
